LC 79 and fridge

[Koedoe]

Good evening gents. I want to put a fridge on the back of my LC79 DC, on the bin, can i just strap it down or does it have to go on a fridge slider, i dont have canopy / drawer system, net so in die bak, any ideas?

Strapping it down securely should be fine if you are not worried about theft, not that it's any more secure on a slider.

However, if you have no canopy the fridge will be exposed to the elements; sun, dust, rain etc.
Your electrical points may be affected.
You'd need to find a way of protecting it..

Thank you Manny, for now I will cover with a tarpaulin when we travel, i just got the vehicle so I dont want to rush into spending on extras while Im still figuring out what I want to do.

[Mad Manny]

Get some 9mm or 12mm PVC sheeting, some Connect-It tubes & connectors, a piano hinge & a clip & then build a box for it.
Just remember to drill holes for airflow at the correct place...

I have two fridges in the back of my 79. Made a angle iron frame in which they fit right behind the cab. I don`t even strap them down.

Yip all depending how rough you trip
With the weight in the Fridge my fridges don't move around un strapped as Grips mentioned

Best is to do a trip or 2 and figure out what your requirements are
Then buil like they say

Measure twice cut once
